Purpose

The <button> element represents a button labeled by its contents.

The type attribute controls the behavior of the button when it is activated. It is an enumerated attribute.

  • submit: Submits the form (default, if type is not specified)
  • button: Does nothing
  • reset: Resets the form

Note, you can nest an icon within a button (only supported on <button> elements, not <input type="button">). If your button only contains an icon, then you must use the Icon Button component instead.
